new complete shortblock thank god. i asked and they said that subaru is aware of the ringland failure issue and this should correct that... issue solved... fingers crossed. hopefully ill be hanging out this friday or saturday.

my gf has a nice sony cybershot. yea we can do a shoot, get some rolling shots and what not.. i know some decent spots...

on another note i have been under the impression for over a year now that my 240 had blown rings. well i retested all cylinders last night warm with all plugs removed at wot and got approximatly 150 across all cylinders. so apparently the block is healthy. which still doesnt explain what is wrong with it. its basically is acting like it is hitting the rev limiter but its hitting it at 2500 rpms and its very intermittant and will only do it when the engine is at operating temp.

lol. yes that is kinda what im saying. lol. checked the fuel pump, maf, compression, im going to check for boost leaks tonight. and check the turbo. for the longest time ive been under the impression the rings were bad due to oil in the exhaust and intercooler but it may be the turbo causing that. i know they tend to blow around 14psi and ive been running near 13.5 for close to a year. and at the top of any gear i get alot of smoke in the exhaust. so its probably a shot turbo. i wonder if this would cause my issue though. im sure it needs replacing though.

i also forgot to mention they are replacing the clutch... freakin sweet. thumbs up to HHI Subaru. new turbo-check, new short block-check, new clutch-check, new ecu-check, fresh seals and gaskets-check. price 100$$$ hell yea...
